are there any tropical depressions looming that we should keep our eyes on? It's always "iffy" going to the Gulf this time of year.

I'm not a weather guy but I did catch a weather guy today as he went thru one brewing coming out of Africa. It looked like it may be thru its path before that week in Sept at the Gulf.

I will also be at the Gulf that week with my wife who has a work meeting down there. Hoping to play some golf and relax in the condo.

Yes
The worst weather in history is coming.
The worst DEPRESSION EVER with winds of a fart aka 34mph.

In seriousness. You are about a week out from having even an idea for the 12th.. Let alone a week after that.

A forecast is still know 1-2 weeks out it just isn't very accurate. The closer you get to the day you want the accuracy of the forecast goes up. I can tell you the weather in 5 min to near 100% accuracy and I ain't a meterologist.

It's impossible to mail down anything that far out...especially anything tropical in nature. As of right now, the Gulf looks quiet for the foreseeable future.

If you go on down to Mexico, which I don't recommend in today's world - Mexican weather forecast, "Chili today and Hot Tamale". Hail State!
